Using e-commerce solutions designed for your needs, we make it easy for you to set up shop and start selling online! We provide you with world class designs, payment gateways set up, merchant processing, accounting logistics, and more.
The back-end of the website, the programming and interactions on the pages. Web development focuses on how a site works and how the customers get things done on it.
We create web sites, newsletters, and social media designs that turn heads. Our goal is to deliver web designs that take our clients ideas to whole new heights.
Business cards, logos, packaging, advertisements; we do it all! Our favorite part of the job is seeing our clients' businesses take off after they've had a brand makeover.
There are very few clients who need to be on the cutting edge of design as music venues. There are also even fewer clients who need to get these designs on under 2-3 hour deadlines and require constant changes to their artwork and website as a cocktail lounge that doubles as a music venue. El Dorado has become a San Diego institution and having worked with them since their grand opening in 2008, we have worked hard to develop a brand standard that is equalled by none in San Diego Music and Nightlife. The El Dorado brand has to at once; be tasteful yet witty, be bold yet subtle, be consistent yet constantly evolving. Having done 1000+ of projects for El Dorado, we are confident that there is not another branding agency in San Diego that could handle their high standard for creativity and artwork while meeting their short deadlines. It is never easy, but it is always fun.
El Dorado's first website exhibited a rustic saloon feel that really brought to life the old west vibe of the place. The bar itself is adorned with a majestic white buffalo sitting watch over the venue and old wooden bar tops. The 2008 site was built in HTML and was done on a strict budget. El Dorado was just a mere start up at the time and money was so tight you could smell the desperation on the Stanton Brother (owners of El Dorado). However, the brothers understood the value of a quality branding and we were able to come up with creative inexpensive solutions for their various needs; RSVP forms, ticket purchase links, easy to update menus, and more.
In 2012, it was time to revisit the El Dorado website and bring it into the social media era. Their new site has been the envy of many a venue's eye. Working closely with the client we built a site that reflects the rustic nature of the old saloon, while bringing the edge and hipness of a modern business. After all, El Dorado is hipster Mecca in San Diego, so anything that came across as cliche or too mainstream would have been immediately scorned by their followers. El Dorado's website opened to rave reviews and using the popular open source CMS, Wordpress, the venue managers are able to constantly update site content and post events and specials without harming the integrity of the sites artwork and style.
Platinum LED US inc came to us desperate for a brand make over and in need of the most stunning website in the lighting business. As a small start up fighting against lighting giants the likes of Phillips, Cree, and GE, Platinum LED looked to position themselves as a fresh new company boasting a greener healthier life style. We helped them achieve their goal with a brand new head-turning e-commerce website where they could offer their patented products to the world and gain the attention of major retail stores like Costco, Soriana, and Coppel.
In addition to their glossy new site, Platinum LED came to us in need of new business cards and a new logo. They were looking to achieve that all elusive hip and edgy -- yet professional and clean look. With the logo we came up with, they were more than happy to share their new brand.
This Greener than ever company also brought us on to continually update their social media and develop an on going advertising campaign. The idea we are after with Platinum LED was 75% Lifestyle branding, 15% Boasting savings, and 10% fun and illustration. We developed some extraordinary art work and product mockups that helped them get into retail outlets and increase their brand awareness.
What we love about Platinum LED:
Sustainability and efficiency are two words that get thrown around our office often. We are all of that generation who believes it is our responsibility to make a difference. Whether or not Platinum LED becomes a lighting conglomerate, we are proud to say we did what we do best to help spread sustainable ideas and products. We love green ideas as much as we love our ritualistic lunch outings to Burger Lounge.
Reisa is one of those companies that you just knew would take off. They came to us in the early stages of their development in search of a logo. They were a couple of midwest good ol' boys who loved fly fishing and surfing. Their concept was simple enough; be the first fly fishing company to showcase something other than stuffy old guys in funny looking vests, expand to other outdoor gear and apparel, then take over the world. Since coming to us for "just a logo" back in 2012, we have been brought on as their sole advertising partner and had the honor of building both their 175 page catalog as well as a state-of-the-art contemporary e-commerce website
When it comes to print work, catalogs are about as big of a project as you can get. Putting together a 175 page catalog of over 3000 products does not come together without a harmonious partnership between client and designer. Our goal at FYC is to talk to you, to learn from you, and get to know your company so that you walk away with a product that you had never imagined was possible. Communication and chemistry are important in any relationship, and are proud to say we achieved this with Reisa. Their catalog while beastly in size, was elegant and triumphant. Oh, and did we mention that it is future proof. Built with the idea of quickly being able to add and delete products on a whim, Reisa will be using that original design as a template for years.
Reisaflyfish.com absolutely blows away it's competitors. While most fly fishing companies sport the typical browns, greens, and other dull earth tones, Reisa wanted to shake things up a bit and bring a much more contemporary look to the fly fishing industry. Their website, built on the award winning Magento platform contains, over 3,000 products, is mobile ready, optimized for easy navigation, and prime search engine results. This is the Cadillac of websites. It is as fancy on the back end as it is on the front end. We developed custom magento extensions to fulfill every unique specific client need. While the problems we tackled were complicated, we came up with elegant solutions that were effective and sustainable; making sure not bloat the already massive site. Being built on the Magento platform, this website is as powerful as it is beautiful. Several customized excel documents were developed in order to accommodate many product attributes while cutting down on the pain staking time it takes to enter product information. Simply, fill out a straightforward spreadsheet with SKU, size, and custom options; then watch our customized automated processes populate your site with stunning products displays and well organized catalogs.
What we love about Reisa:
We made it easy for this company see their ideas come to fruition and developed a life long friendship with a client who shares our love for getting outdoors and enjoying nature. This company will be rivaling REI, Patagonia, and Cabelas in no time. We are proud to be a part of that and that's what we love about Reisa.
It was time for us to cross the border for this project. Imperial Pasteleria was a particularly cool client to work with. Their business concept was about as fun as it gets; a personalized cake delivery service. Imperial was looking for a site that would allow their customers to purchase cakes for delivery and customize them with messages and ornaments. In addition, Imperial Pasteleria asked us to make fun business cards, graphics, logos, and to create a social media package for them so that they could promote their products. What we came up with was a fun brand that showcased their delicious products. This partnership was a great success and we enjoyed every bite, I mean minute of it!
Oh and did we mention that this was an international client? We adapted all of the wordpress and woo-commerce back end to accommodate the spanish speaking client. In addition we translated the site into both english and spanish. FYC Labs knows no borders or language barriers.
What we love about Imperial Pasteleria:
Well, for starters all the free cake! Imperial's concept was fun to design and having native spanish speaking designers made the process smooth and easy. Great client with great "taste"… Literally they taste great. You gotta try these cakes.
The comics are brought to life by Pablo Stanley. He is a mexican artist based in San Diego, California showing the world see his talents. His humble mindset and fun personality have led Pablo to create the witty, inspiring, and crazy comics and characters raging over the web. StanleyColors.com was launched January 1st, 2012 and the ideas & fans haven't stopped flowing since then. Pablo is also the creative director and part owner of FYC Labs.
Pablo's comics are internationally known and boast around 45,000 page views per day. The illustrations are second to none and have been featured in the Huffington post under the heading "Best. Comic. Ever."… TWICE!
While we could go on and on about how great this client is to work with and how amazing the artwork is, but we would hate to just sit here and brag. Take a look and let's let the artwork speak for itself.
What started out as another simple logo has turned into yet another long term relationship with a great client with great ambitions. Evolexp started out as a simple event planning agency and has since turned into San Diego's premier venue and event management service. They have handled clients big and small and keep coming back to us to develop their creative for invites, newsletters, and much more.
One of our favorite parts of the job is to see how influential our design and artwork can be on our clients confidence in their business. When EXP came to us they were struggling with a name, mission statement, and brand conceptions. Through working closely together and some long coffee filled nights the EXP brand emerged and owner Lisa Kennedy found herself with a new sense of purpose and enthusiasm for her business. We understand that starting a new business is a massive undertaking and we love it when a client see's their new brand in action and it revives their entrepreneurial spirit.
The EXP logo had to meet three specific needs, 1. It had to be professional, 2. It had to be edgy, 3. It had to be bold. Lisa fell in love with this logo and when you visit her office it pretty much dominates every inch of the place. We were proud of ourselves ;)
We have received rave reviews for the EXP website. Building it on Wordpress has allowed the client to make quick and easy changes and keep their content up to date. They have been able to create RSVP pages and add some great plug-ins that help keep their brand on top in the Venue/Event management industry in a town that always seems to be ditching one trend for the next.
At FYC Labs our goal is to create high level artwork and web platforms that take your business to a whole new level. Our team is small enough to provide you with great service and quality designs, but talented and experienced enough to handle BIG jobs. Communication is the key at FYC. We are always available and live to meet your deadlines.

I am thrilled to report that all power is restored in Somers. Thank you all for your patience and neighborliness during the past few weeks.

Debris clean up continues from our dedicated Highway crew who despite many days and long hours of hurricane cleanup had our roads broom clean Thursday morning after over 6 inches of snowfall.
Police, fire and other emergency workers also put in long hours. The County has been a great resource and partner to the Town throughout and continues to be.

If anyone wishes to trick or treat with their children do so on Sunday. This is entirely optional for both children and homeowners. If you wish to participate turn on your porch light.
Veteran's Day is this Sunday November 11. The parade begins at the Somers Town House at 10:30 am sharp with the ceremony in Ivandell Cemetery at 11 am. Let's make this the biggest turnout ever to honor our Vets; never forget, they are, Hero's all.

Four Sandy-Related Deaths
Hurricane Sandy has claimed four lives in the Lower Hudson Valley.
A tree crashed through a home in Pearl River at about 6 p.m. Monday, killing a 51-year-old man and placing his family in the hospital.
In North Salem, a tree came down Monday evening, killing two middle school-aged boys.
A motorist on the Sprain Brook Parkway in Greenburgh died due to storm conditions Monday evening, as well, according to state police.
The storm—an amalgam of several foul weather patterns—brought its worst rains and winds through the region between 6 p.m. and 11 p.m. Monday.
The National Hurricane Center was no longer labeling Sandy a hurricane as of 7 p.m. Monday, as it teetered on the edge of the northeast coastline—but the squall still held amazing power.
Nearly all municipalities in Westchester, Rockland and Putnam declared states of emergency, with evacuations in effect in Port Chester, Piermont, Yonkers and other villages and cities. Hundreds of thousands throughout the three counties will be without electricity for up to a week, power companies have said.
Roads Tuesday afternoon were populated by emergency vehicles, branches and debris; the Tappan Zee Bridge closed for several hours due to whipping winds.

To recover a dropped or corrupt table with Percona Data Recovery Tool for InnoDB you need two things: media with records(ibdata1, *.ibd, disk image, etc.) and a table structure. Indeed, there is no information about the table structure in an InnoDB page. Normally we either recover the structure from .frm files or take it from some old backup.
A new tool
sys_parser can recover the table structure from InnoDB dictionary.
Why do we need a new tool anyway? It is absolutely critical to have an accurate table definition to ensure a successful recovery. Even an unnoticeable difference like NULL or NOT NULL can shift all[Read more...]

A federal appeals court has ruled that an employer who terminated a pregnant employee is guilty of pregnancy discrimination. The court ruled that because her managers discussed her pregnancy in relation to her termination, saying that her "belly would be in the way," the comments were discriminatory.
A federal court has awarded a former security officer more than $50,000 in back wages and attorney's fees after he was fired for refusing to shave his beard as requested by his employer. The officer kept his beard closely cropped but maintained that the beard was part of his religious observance. The court found that the company's request was religious discrimination.

In 2013 one platform created more requests for POVs and testing from our Fortune 500 clients than any other. That platform… Tumblr.
What makes Tumblr unique? The platform is a hybrid of social & the web. Tumblr provides a massive (225m monthly uniques) and highly engaged audience as well as complete creative control over the look & feel of the experience. This is a valuable proposition for extending the equity & discoverability of a brand's digital presence.
Tumblr can serve as a campaign destination or social hub which has become a lost element within the social ecosystem. Most social platforms have moved away from a destination approach and are focused on atomized content engagement. Meaning the emphasis is on making sure your content is engaging enough to capture users attention within a short amount of time.
With Tumblr, brands are not limited to a single media type, there are no design restrictions and no character limits. A brand can create a compelling experience that transcends the social stream and maps to discovery through traditional channels such as search.
Here is an example of THE SIGNAL from Lexus. Note the design freedoms of the platform.
Other key elements to consider: Tumblr blogs can support custom URL's... Read more

It is written in Python and uses the Visualization Toolkit (VTK) for the graphics. MayaVi can be scripted from other Python programs and also from the interactive Python interpreter. MayaVi includes the VTK Pipeline browser. The VTK Pipeline browser is a Python module (vtkPipeline) that enables one to view and configure the objects in the VTK pipeline graphically with a Tkinter-based GUI. The browser should work for any Python script that uses VTK. MayaVi also provides classes to pickle a VTK object and a simple class documentation browser.
Hasard is a pseudo-random number generator (PRNG) library. It includes multiple engines (algorithms): Park-Miller, Mersenne Twister, Linux device (/dev/urandom or /dev/random), and more. It has a simple but powerful API. For example, a PRNG seed can be generated using strong entropy (using a hardware random number generator like /dev/random on Linux). The library is written in C, and a Python binding is available. The word "hasard" is the French word for "randomness" or "chance".
SPFPM (Simple Python Fixed-Point Module) is a Python module which provides basic facilities for manipulating (binary) fixed-point numbers. The number of fractional binary digits is tunable, allowing near-arbitrary precision arithmetic. Arithmetic and mathematical functions such as sqrt, exp, log, sin, and cos are available.
The Python audio processing suite is a module that contains a variety of convenience functions to process audio signals. It can be used to plot spectral analyses of a song across time and to quickly ascertain encoding quality, but the instrumental goal of this suite is to robustly identify duplicated songs, regardless of which album they were released in, encoding quality, or start time.

Traditional Chai Recipe with Fresh Spices
A good friend revealed to me recently that she had never tasted any other type of Chai other than what was served her at the local coffee shop. Well, when I prepared this fresh chai recipe and shared a cuppa with her, I was not too surprised to find her loving it!
Directions for preparing 4 servings.
- 1 TBS Cardamom pods
- 1 TBS Ceylon Cinnamon chips ( 1" to 2" stick broken into pieces)
- 1 1/2 TSP Whole Cloves
- 1 TSP Whole Black Pepper
- 1TBS Finely chopped Fresh Ginger
- 2 TBS High Quality Black Tea, such as Darjeeling
- Sugar to Taste
- 3/4 to 1 cup warmed Whole Milk
- 3 cup of water
Bring the water to a boil in a small pan, lower heat to a gentle simmer. Grind the whole spices, just a few spins in a grinder will do - just enough to roughly grind the spices. Add 3 TSP of ground spices to the simmering water, ( reserve the rest for tomorrow's Chai ) cover and simmer on very low heat for 5 minutes.
Add the tea to the pot with spices, stir, remove from heat and pour into a carafe if using a french press, add the ginger. Place the press into the carafe but do not plunge. Let the ingredients steep for a couple of minutes. Add the warm whole milk, add sugar, stir and gently depress the plunger. Serve into pre-warmed mugs or cups. Enjoy your very own home made fresh Chai!

The Mighty Tritons enjoyed a hefty haul of top-three swims during last weekend's Joanne Malar Invitational in Hamilton.
Delivering a near-golden sweep was Vasil Kecheliev, who dominated the 14-year-old boys division with first-place finishes in the 50 and 100-metre freestyle, 50 and 100m butterfly and 400m individual medley. He rounded out the meet with a silver in the 200m IM.
Alan Powichrowski stood out among the 12-year-old boys, with golden performances in the 50 and 100m breaststroke, 100m freestyle and 100m backstroke. He swam the 50m butterfly, 50m backstroke and 100m IM to second-place finishes, and took fourth in the 50m freestyle.
Securing two of the club's five other wins was 10-and-under girls competitor Kylie Day, who turned back all challengers in the 200m freestyle and 200m IM. She was second in the 100m backstroke and third in the 50m backstroke.
Aislinn Fisher highlighted a three-medal weekend 100m IM gold in the 15-and-over girls ranks — while claiming silver in the 50m butterfly and bronze in the 100m freestyle — while Hope Hamill won the 10-and-under girls 100m breaststroke.
Rounding out the Tritons' golden tally was 15-and-over boys standout Macrae Hewitt, who prevailed in the 200m backstroke. He medaled in each of his five other events, with seconds in the 50 and 100m backstroke and 100m freestyle and third-place showings in the 50m freestyle and 50m breaststroke.
Also representing the club were Sydni Hughes (11-year-old girls — 2nd in 200m freestyle, 4th in 50m freestyle and 800m freestyle), Ralitza Kechelieva (10-and-under girls — 3rd in 400m freestyle and 200m IM), Logan Edwards (15-and-over boys — 3rd in 100m IM, 4th in 50m backstroke) and Margarita Busenko (11-year-old girls — 4th in 50m backstroke).

The market for mobile web browsers is split between products with a mobile or PC heritage. NetFront from Japanese developer ACCESS has been mobile from its first incarnation on i-mode handsets. ACCESS now has its sights on a wider market for its compact browser, and Symbian OS is one of the key platforms they are targeting. (November 26, 2003)
Headquartered in Tokyo, Japan, with offices in the US, China and Germany, ACCESS has been developing embedded software for over 20 years. Their initial work on Internet protocol stacks led to the creation of an application suite for NTT DOCOMO's i-mode phones. This suite is now widely deployed in i-mode phones for both the Japanese market as well as internationally. While the i-mode application suite includes a Java VM and messaging client in addition to a browser, all based on a shared library for key functions such as parsing and rendering, it is the browser component which ACCESS are looking to deploy onto a wider range of operating systems and the key operating systems ACCESS is targeting is Symbian OS.
"ACCESS has always taken a different approach to those developers building browsers for the rest of the mobile world," said Claudia Hoeck, Strategy and Marketing Manager with ACCESS Systems Europe. "While other developers have been using WAP our browser technology has always used standard internet technology as much as possible. So in our original i-mode browser we were using a subset of standard internet functionality. Now of course we are seeing the standards start to converge, WAP 2.0 is using a web markup language, its happening in protocol stacks too with technology such as wireless profiled TCP/IP, which means NetFront is ideally positioned to address the browsing needs of a range of new mobile devices."
It is this heritage that Claudia believes gives ACCESS an advantage as they have been implementing web browsing in a lightweight mobile browser for many years, and to date can boast over 250 commercial deployments. So as mobile and wired web technologies have converged ACCESS has realised that their technology can be brought to other mobile platforms. ACCESS sees Symbian OS as one of the most important new platforms and it is the focus of their activities at present, however they also support other platforms such as Palm and Linux, as well as a range of proprietary operating systems.
Written in a mixture of C and C++ NetFront is ACCESS's second generation browser. The original browser, Compact NetFront Plus, was widely deployed in i-mode and while NetFront 3 has inherited several elements of core code from NetFront Plus it's architecture is radically different. This difference is to facilitate NetFront 3's implementation onto multiple platforms while being able to maintain the same core browser technology across all the supported platforms. "NetFront's architecture is modular and designed to be flexible," explained Claudia. "We have the ability to quickly configure an implementation by plugging in or out certain modules and creating a tailored package." While this technology means that each implementation can be tightly configured it also allows additional features to be added post implementation by an operator or device owner.
In many respects NetFront's architecture reflects ACCESS's commercial philosophy as much as a technological one. "Historically we have worked closely with operators to understand their needs and build solutions which fulfill those needs, indeed we continue working with operators in this way today", said Claudia. "In addressing Operator's requirements we have come to recognize that our products must be able to show adaptability to meet specific needs and requirements."
While the architectural flexibility of NetFront is important ACCESS's key development focus at the moment is the user experience. "We have been focusing heavily on usability in the last few months", said Claudia. "We have a number of improvements nearing completion and these will be reflected in forthcoming announcements."
Load NetFront up on a Nokia 3650 and the first thing you will probably notice is the install size, at 1.3 Mb it is relatively large and is larger than some rival products. However despite the large install NetFront is impressively frugal in terms of execution memory and it is possible to run several other applications on a Nokia 3650 while NetFront is active, particularly when using it in text-only mode. NetFront also reacts intelligently to the available memory, for example, it will offer the option to display a page in a text-only view when there is insufficient memory to render it with graphics, it also appears to shut down other applications in the background as it recognizes the need for additional memory.
NetFront renders pages in a narrow screen format requiring the user to only scroll up and down to navigate the page, left and right scrolls jump sequentially across the available hyperlinks in the page. ACCESS claims this patented Smart-Fit technology provides a more accurate rendering of the page, and does not drop forms, banners and sponsors ads, which they suggest rival technologies, such as Opera's Small Screen Rendering, can do.
Another important feature of NetFront is that it incorporates hooks for the use of PKI in addition to standard SSL and TSL security. This makes NetFront a ready platform for highly secure consumer services or enterprise applications.
It has several features which help not only with internal memory usage but also should minimize the network traffic while maximizing the web experience, such as an option to load images only as they are scrolled to on a page.
It also nicely integrates with the messaging application so the emails can be created for mailto fields found in web pages. It also offers the ability to send pages via the full range of built in messaging options.
One of the challenges with compact web browsers is how well they manage to render web pages designed for desktop PC's. NetFront does a respectable job, certainly for the majority of pages visited, although some pages with complex layouts employing frames and high end graphic are not rendered well.
"NetFront's intelligent rendering is capable of reproducing a developer's page on a small screen," said Claudia. "While there are no special tricks a web designer has to employ obviously pages which have been well designed and have a clear clean structure, as they should have for a PC browser, will be more efficiently rendered by NetFront. However there are limits and pages which use sophisticated features probably won"t render well in NetFront." Developer's who wish to ensure their pages work with NetFront can use a Window' based emulator, available on request, to check their content's compatibility.
While ACCESS's long term strategy is to work with handset vendors and network operators to have NetFront delivered in the box they are currently selling NetFront for the Nokia 3650 through web retailers such as Handango.
The market for web browsers for mobile devices is in sharp contrast to the desktop browser market where the choice is very limited. ACCESS is competing with a number of intelligent browser clients as well as a number of gateway services in attempting to address this market. It will be interesting to see how they progress as recent announcements suggest Opera has a significant lead in the Symbian OS market. However it should not be impossible for ACCESS to catch up, they seem to have a good quality product and the need to achieve differentiation, both between device manufactures and network operators should provide them with plenty of opportunities.

I was wondering if in anyone was interested in working on a project to get the iPhone to go beyond proxy-based tethering and have a program that will simply allow the iPhone to take its Internet connection and serve it up to a WLAN.
I believe it has the hardware, and I would think that we would be able to at least get some ideas from dd-wrt for the source code (it's open, right?).
Tethering is great, but zero config is better.
